This narrows down the introduction of the baseball-themed 3 Strikes bag to one of the next two playings. The hole at the bottom of Squeeze Play's board is still present as of this episode as well, which would be filled in by April 23, 1990. You can also see that the pink railings, leftovers from the rather short-lived period with the pink CR borders, are still in use. Near the end of this season (by the S19 premiere), the railings would become black. The extra lights on the curtains behind the audience, missing since the debut of the curved curtains, would be added later that season.
That came very close to cheating on that Pathfinder playing there when trying to step on the first number.
